Foreign News: Know Your Paradise

Britain's New Statesman and Nation recently invited readers to write a
Service guide, to either Heaven or Hell, parodying the pamphlets issued
to soldiers & sailors in World War II. The prizewinning parody of a
U.S. Army "Guide to Heaven":

"You and your outfit have been ordered to Heaven as part of an all-out
Allied Offensive against the Devil. You're going to meet a people who

they're out to lick the Devil all the way
